1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

A rare complication, 5-oxoproline-induced high anion gap metabolic acidosis (HAGMA) is associated with chronic acetaminophen use, predominantly reported in outpatient settings. However, its occurrence in hospitalized patients, particularly those with end-stage renal disease (ESRD), remains underreported. We present a case of a 74-year-old female with ESRD on hemodialysis who developed HAGMA highly suspicious for 5-oxoproline toxicity from acetaminophen usage following cardiac surgery. Despite a standard analgesic dose, the patient's renal impairment likely predisposed her to 5-oxoproline accumulation, resulting in severe metabolic acidosis. Discontinuation of acetaminophen led to the resolution of HAGMA, highlighting the importance of recognizing this rare but potentially life-threatening complication in the inpatient and critical care setting. This case suggests a potential interaction between acetaminophen metabolism and renal dysfunction in the pathogenesis of 5-oxoproline-induced HAGMA.
